Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to systems and methods for three- dimensional ("3D") seismic data depth conversion utilizing artificial neural networks. More particularly, the present invention relates to the conversion of stacked or, preferably, time migrated 3D seismic data and associated seismic attributes from a time domain to a depth domain,
- Converting 3D seismic data from a time domain to a depth domain is critically important for geoscientists and reservoir engineers involved in estimating reservoir reserves through reservoir characterization studies, horizontal well planning and geo- steering, stimulation design and reservoir simulation.
- Depth converted seismic data may be used to enhance stratigraphic mapping of reservoir porosity and thickness with well control, prove the structural/fault interpretation along the length of horizontal wells in order to stay in the hydrocarbon zone, to provide a more accurate framework for reservoir reserve calculations and overall asset management.
- Many conventional techniques and procedures have been developed to convert seismic data from a time domain to a depth domain. These techniques include developing velocity models from check-shot surveys, velocity surveys, stacking velocities, tomography, acoustic inversion, well log data, and the like.
- volume depthing is never 100% accurate for use in reservoir characterization studies because the velocity model ends up being too simple for the resolution required. As a consequence, the reservoir interval of interest is smoothed or even lost in the result when the entire seismic volume is converted to a depth domain.
- Such attributes provide value in a depth domain, but are rarely interpreted, or even interpre table, as volume attributes in the depth domain.
- Clearly a high resolution method for mapping the many time domain reservoir attributes to a depth domain would be desirable to aid in improving the reliability and detail of seismic interpretation and subsequent reservoir evaluation and planning.
- the present invention meets the above needs and overcomes one or more deficiencies in the prior art by providing systems and methods for the conversion of stacked, or preferably, time migrated 3D seismic data and associated seismic attributes from a time domain to a depth domain,
- the present invention includes a method for converting three-dimensional seismic data from a time domain to a depth domain, which comprises i) predicting interval transit times for selected wells without sonic logs within or near a reservoir interval of interest using an artificial neural network; ii) converting time-depth pairs for the selected wells to time-depth pairs along a seismic time horizon; iii) forming a reference horizon by realigning seismic traces in a three- dimensional seismic time volume to align the seismic time horizon with a time zero on each trace; iv) assigning a relative depth to each seismic sample value and respective seismic attribute value at or near the reservoir interval of interest using the converted time-depth pairs; v) forming multiple structurally correct surfaces representing a time-depth horizon volume; and vi) transferring each seismic sample value and respective seismic attribute value at or near the reservoir interval of interest from the seismic time volume to the multiple structurally correct surfaces in the time- depth horizon volume.
- the present invention includes a program carrier device for carrying computer executable instructions for converting three-dimensional seismic data from a time domain to a depth domain.
- the instructions are executable to implement i) predicting interval transit times for selected wells without sonic logs within or near a reservoir interval of interest using an artificial neural network; ii) converting time-depth pairs for the selected wells to time-depth pairs along a seismic time horizon; iii) forming a reference horizon by realigning seismic traces in a three- dimensional seismic time volume to align the seismic time horizon with a time zero on each trace; iv) assigning a relative depth to each seismic sample value and respective seismic attribute value at or near the reservoir interval of interest using the converted time-depth pairs; v) forming multiple structurally correct surfaces representing a time-depth horizon volume; and vi) transferring each seismic sample value and respective seismic attribute value at or near the reservoir interval of interest from the seismic time volume to the multiple structurally correct surfaces in the time- depth horizon volume.
- FIG, 1 is a flow diagram illustrating one embodiment of a method for implementing the present invention.
- FIG, 2 is a block diagram illustrating one embodiment of a system for implementing the present invention.
- the method 100 provides a very efficient way to easily convert, with high resolution, 3D seismic data and associated seismic attributes from a time domain to a depth domain for use in reservoir studies.
- the time-migrated seismic data may be image-ray corrected using the method of Larner, et al. (1981).
- the method 100 incorporates one or more steps for training a multi-perception back-propagation artificial neural network to learn the interval transit times for each well in the reservoir study area.
- An artificial neural network is used for the purpose of predicting sonic logs from other logs related to the same well for welis where sonic logs are not available or are available but contaminated with unacceptable noise.
- the artificial neural network may be trained to predict sonic logs using wells that do have good sonic logs, The reasonable underlying assumption is that unknown lateral variations of the artificial neural network coefficients would be insignificant within the specific reservoir interval of interest due to similarity in geology, burial history, etc. and thus, a single artificial neural network can be used for all of the wells. More than one artificial neural network, however, may be preferred.
- a seismic time horizon is selected within, or immediately adjacent to, a reservoir interval of interest using the client interface and/or the video interface described in reference to FIG.
- the reservoir interval may be interpreted using the reservoir seismic data in order that the seismic time horizon may be identified and selected within, or immediately adjacent to, the reservoir interval of interest.
- the seismic time horizon may arise from a reflection from the top or base of the reservoir interval or a reflection from some other layering within, immediately above or immediately below the reservoir interval.
- a seismic depth horizon may be selected in the same manner with depth-migrated seismic data instead of with time-migrated seismic data when in the presence of structural complexity in both the overburden and reservoir,
- the seismic depth horizon may be converted to a seismic time horizon using techniques well known in the art such as, for example, ray tracing or eikonal methods, while maintaining the well locations on the seismic time horizon.
- wells and associated well log data that intersect the reservoir interval of interest may be selected using the client interface and/or the video interface described in reference to FIG. 2.
- the well log data from the selected wells may be processed using well-known multi-variate statistical techniques to remove unreliable data components, like noise.
- the well log data may comprise, for example, available data from open hole or cased hole well log data.
- the well log depth picks may be converted to depths along the selected seismic time horizon using techniques well known in the art.
- the depth of the reflecting horizon corresponding to the selected seismic time horizon is identified in the wells and those depth picks may be interpolated and/or extrapolated using techniques such as kriging to provide a depth for every sampled location within the selected seismic time horizon.
- an artificial neural network may be trained and validated using interval transit times from sonic logs for the selected wells, the processed well log data and techniques well known in the art.
- interval transit times for the selected wells without valid sonic logs within and/or near the reservoir interval of interest may be predicted using the artificial neural network.
- the interval transit times generated by the artificial neural network may be carefully analyzed and studied using well-known quality control techniques to confirm the level of accuracy required for each interval transit time.
- step 114 equal time/variable depth (time-depth) pairs may be produced for each selected well in the reservoir interval of interest by numerically integrating the interval transit times from sonic logs for the selected wells and the interva! transit times for the proxy sonic logs.
- the time origin for the integration is established at the depth of the selected seismic time horizon for each well location.
- the equal time increment is preferably that of the seismic data being analyzed, often 2 milliseconds, although a finer increment may be chosen and the seismic data resampled to that finer increment to facilitate visualization and interpretation.
- the variable depth reservoir interval may be as small or as large as necerney. Care is taken to make small adjustments as needed to ensure that the depths are consistent with available geological horizon picks.
- time-depth model may be developed that takes into account both the vertical variation and the lateral variation at an extremely detailed level.
- other conventional techniques may only use as few as one well or one check-shot survey, resulting in an over-simplified, smoothed velocity model producing a time-depth relationship without the necessary detail.
- the time-depth pairs for all selected wells may be converted to time-depth pairs along the selected seismic time horizon using techniques well-known in the art.
- a reference horizon is formed by realigning seismic traces in a 3D seismic volume (in time) so that the selected seismic time horizon appears at time zero on each trace.
- Each individual seismic trace in the seismic time volume is shifted up or down so that the selected seismic time horizon on each trace assumes a new constant time. For example, if on seismic trace (I,J) the reference horizon time is 2.14 seconds and the constant time is 1.96 seconds, then the entire seismic trace would be realigned by shifting upward 0, 18 seconds.
- the reference horizon will appear as a flat horizon aligned at 1.96 seconds on every seismic trace. At this point the reference horizon is the origin time for all subsequent depthing.
- a relative depth is assigned to each seismic sample amplitude value and associated seismic attribute value at or near the reservoir interval of interest using the converted time-depth pairs.
- the seismic data is sampled at a constant time step (e.g. 2 millisecond increments) and the reference horizon is a 1.996 second horizontal slice, it is followed in time by a 1.998 time slice, a 2.000 second time slice, etc.
- the subsurface distance between each horizontal slice is generally not a constant depth increment, but will generally vary from trace to trace and time to time. In the case of linear increase of velocity with depth, the depth steps grow exponentially with time. So if the horizon is at 1.996 seconds, the 1.998 second time slice might correspond to a position 6 feet below the reference horizon and the 2,000 second time slice to a position 15 feet below the reference horizon.
- multiple structurally con-ect surfaces representing a time-depth horizon volume may be formed by adding the depths along the selected seismic time horizon to the depths assigned to each seismic sample amplitude value and associated seismic attribute value. In this manner, an absolute depth for each seismic sample amplitude value and associated seismic attribute value at and/or near the reservoir interval of interest may be determined. Each depth corresponds to a time-depth pair along the selected seismic time horizon and defines a structurally correct surface in depth. The collection of the multiple structurally correct surfaces define a time-depth horizon volume and bound a depth volume within the subsurface.
- each seismic sample amplitude value and associated seismic attribute value at or near the reservoir interval of interest may be transferred from the seismic time volume to the multiple structurally correct surfaces in the time-depth horizon volume using techniques well-known in the art such as, for example, arithmetic (mean, closest to node, median, average, etc.) methods, geometric methods, or geostatistical methods.
- the seismic time volume and the time-depth horizon volume are colocated.
- the seismic attributes are transferred from the seismic time volume to the multiple structurally correct surfaces in the time-depth horizon volume using the value closest to the horizon sample location as it appears to be statistically the most accurate.
- a 3D geocellu!ar model may be constructed that contains the time-depth horizon volume using the multiple structurally correct surfaces and techniques well-known in the art such as those embodied in commercial software packages such as Landmark Graphics Corporation's Decision Space ⁇ Desktop.
- each seismic sample amplitude value and associated seismic attribute value from the structurally correct surfaces in the time-depth horizon volume may be transferred to the 3D geocellular model using techniques well known in the art. Because each seismic attribute value is in the depth domain and perfectly collocated with the reservoir well interval, engineering data and micro-seismic information, the 3D geocellular model may be used in reservoir and/or other oil and gas characterization studies as well as horizontal well planning in unconventional reservoirs. Additional benefits may include, for example, use of the results for designing well stimulation, micro-seismic detection (fault detection) and wireline logging,
